Lisa makes the cutest files and today we are showcasing the "yummy" ones :)

I made a shape card using the "Sprinkled Cake Cone" from the new "Ice Cream Treats" cutting files.

SBS Summerween Swap Blog Hop

Happy Friday Crafty Friends!

I hope you had (or are having) a great summer. Are you looking forward to the upcoming holidays? I am :) I love decorating the house and making crafts and gifts. I just always seem to run out of time.

Today I am participating in a blog hop sponsored by Simply Betty Stamps.

Every summer Betty puts together a "Summerween" themed swap. We get a swap partner and send them a package full of Halloween themed goodies. Then we have a hop to share what we got :)

My swap partner is Roz Wolfe, and she spoiled me with some fun goodies.
